In addition to supporting all of the internal recruitment management needs of a corporation, iCIMS' Talent Platform allows Human Resources Professionals to offer best-in-breed application resources through Online Career Centers.

Once completed, the application is instantly accessible by hiring authorities within their iCIMS' Applicant Tracking Solution.

"The 2 million visitor milestone not only reflects the growing desire of job seekers to utilize online tools to find employment, but also shows how prepared iCIMS is to meet the present and future interests and needs of our clients", notes Chris Young, MIS Director at iCIMS. To support its ongoing traffic increases, iCIMS formed an alliance with Akamai Technologies. Akamai, a Massachusetts-based technology firm, specializes in electronic content caching and data delivery services. With Akamai, iCIMS' suite of talent management solutions is run over a backbone of over 13,000 servers worldwide, significantly increasing the speed and responsiveness of the Talent Platform and iCIMS' integrated career portals.

By taking proactive measures and engaging in technology alliances, like that with Akamai, iCIMS is not only able to support current clients and our high renewal rate, but also continue down the path as the Industry's fastest growing provider of Applicant Tracking Solutions."
